The current Thelemapedia categorization coordinator is Adityanath. For more information on Categorization, please see Wikipedia:Categorization. To discuss additions or changes to the current categorization scheme, please use the categorization talk page, Thelemapedia_talk:Categorization.

Here is how the system works. First, all basic articles are assumed to refer to Thelema (after all, this is the Thelemapedia). That is, use Calendar, not Thelemic Calendar; Godforms, not Thelemic Godforms, Holidays, not Thelemic Holidays; Terms & Concepts, not Thelemic terms. However, as you can see by clicking through, in general the qualified terms should be redirected to the basic articles.

Next, in order to get People to appear in Category:People and its subcategories, add lines like the following at the end of your article:

[[Category:People]] [[Category:Writers]]

This will cause the article to appear in the list of articles at the end of Category:People and also in Writers (which has been redirected to Category:Writers). We may or may not want to put all people into Category:People. It is possible we only want to list Very Important People in Category:People, with less important people belonging only to their subcategory.

Similary in order to get Technical terms to appear in the appropriate subcategories, simply add lines like the following at the end of your article.

[[Category: Qabalah]] [[Category: Qabalistic terms]]

The will cause the article to appear in the list of articles at the end of Qabalistic terms. Almost all articles in X terms should also go in the broader category of which the terms are a subcategory. In this example, the article will appear both in Category:Qabalah and Category:Qabalistic terms. Now, another judgment call, either all terms should also go in Category:Terms & Concepts or only Very Important ones, or perhaps only "Thelemic" ones.
